OOOOWWWWWW hahahaha man Muay thai is so cool

Just wanted to say that i started muay thai with a free class on saturday, and it's really really cool. But i got one problem...my left shin HUUUURTS, even though i just kicked the pads...which i must add are really really heavy when you hold them for 5 minutes

Glad that you had a good time and keep on training!
Oh, and after awhile those shins will toughen up.

Awesome! Pain lets you know that you are still alive!

Good luck with your training!

That's great.....keep trying and practice. You will feel a bit more hurt when the opponent try to defence your kick by using his shin also.

It's a lot more HUUUURT. HEE HEE

I have to say though, throing punces is a lot easier from a muay thai stance than a boxing one.

Just remember "Pain is just weakness leaving the body" :asian:

Bring it on!!!!!!!!!!
